Damn this takes a long while to wrap your head around.
I think it would be better if there was a tutorial mode that doesn't show confusing screenshots but lets you play an easy preset of metaphors first, so you can learn how the game works.
To me the tutorial didn't explain anything, honestly, that's why I was so confused when I tried it afterwards and had to click Reveal anyways.
Now I can't play anymore but I think I understood the game mechanic, and am now disappointedly not able to play again until tomorrow.
